Re: Post shootout pics/stories here!
Well the shootout was a good time for me.
MAP ran their car and it was great to watch and I think they were all really pleased with it, but I will let them tell you all everything. Here is a few pics of it on the line and racing.
As for the crash, we were all on our way to Steak and Shake when it happened. We got there right after the first police arrived. It was very sad and we learned about the death at the track on Sunday.
Besides that, the trip was fun and once I go through my pictures I will post more.

I'll let them explain, but its going to be soo much faster than that. I bet they could have a 8 or 9 sec car on their hands. It was a lot of fun to watch them run and just fly past the other car once theirs got going.

Dyno Day
I wish these two guys were not in the picture, but they would not move. And I'm still not sure if the guy on the right is peeing or not?!
Just looked really nice and clean.
Ok sized turbo
Just looked good.
Out in the field, good mix of cars.
What I want my car to look like, only with a pink valve cover
haha Al

This car did not make it too far...and there were more like it.
This color looked so good, and there was an Evo with the same. Looked very nice on the track.

I'm going to say the car should trap around 180mph all said and done and possibly run close to 8.00 for et. Of course this being once the car is on full power. I believe the 154 was on low boost.......

From what I gather, all those involved in the incident were decent people, and this could have happened to anyone of us.

Well, ok, they weren't street racing or driving crazy, but that story in blue didn't say how fast they were going, which must have been pretty fast for them to slide that far and cause the vehicle that hit them to roll several times. I'm not trying to agitate anyone here, but this wasn't a case of completely innocent people, I'm sure they were very nice, but alot of people are very nice, yet drive poorly and suffer/make others suffer from their lack of responsibility.

Re: Post shootout pics/stories here!
Hell, might have went 160, if the hood was on it. That can't be helping aerodynamics at all.

Re: Post shootout pics/stories here!
That's a different perspective. My first thought was they were racing, because that's what everybody does there AND the kid is a teen to boot. But after reading this, it really can happen to anyone, so I hope the driver is acquitted of the charges and he can deal with what happened. Very sad.
And I'm with Fatty, the shootout is not where I'd go to snap pics of chicks. Yikes, miniskirts aren't for everyone.
